QUANG BINH — Border guards in Quang Binh Province yesterday detained a man who was traveling on his motorbike with 34kg of gunpowder. He was travelling from Laos, the police said. Truong Viet Thuan, a resident of the central province's Tuyen Hoa District, was travelling along the border when he was stopped by a Ra Mai border guard unit in Minh Hoa District.

Thuan admitted that he had purchased the gunpowder for consumption within the province, for illegal use by locals in fishing. ­— VNS
